Someone asked me to provide details about my life. Ok here goes, fair's fair, after all. In point form...
Born deaf in Dublin Ireland Sept 16 1971, only child
attended deaf school from 1975 to 1989
brother born 1979, died two days after birth
attended uni 1990-1998, history and philosophy, then adult and continuing ed
while a student... vice chair of the Irish Deaf Society 1994-1999
Adult literacy tutor teaching deaf people 1998-2004
Worked on a TV programme on Irish TV, called Hands On, check google if you're that interested
Worked for a while as a lecturer at Trinity College, Dublin, CDS.
In my spare time, involved in Am Dram
Now a VSO volunteer in the Gambia.
Last year, 4 men proposed marriage to me, I turned them all down. you'd do the same too!! One man told me that marrying me would enable him to get a visa to go to Europe. Another said I would make a good second wife, that he thought I would get on with his first wife, who would be my co-wife.
That's my life in a nutshell.

Hm mm..... My life to-date.
Should make for an interesting "ancient history" class (smile).
During 35 years of my life, I've
- grown up with several sisters and brothers,
- had my heart broken several times,
- made some wrong choices about life and people
- fell in love about 3,578,673,342,311,200,909 times
- learned to walk, to talk and even learned how to dance (all "vintage" skills now - smile)
- survived life-threatening surgery
- kept my faith in God.
The PERSONAL details are reserved for personal friends.
All-in-all, the first 35 years of life are GROWING ones. We all make mistakes and hopefully, learn from them. We leave the roost, go out on our own, explore the possibilities of our dreams, and wish/work for things like job security, lots of money, true friends, everlasting love, and persue whatever else makes us feel secure.
The road to those things may vary, but the foundation is usually the same. So if this info is for a thesis or something, fictionalizing it would probably be accepted by your professor. After all, you certainly can't verify data given by strangers!
Meet more people, make new friends, explore your world, and compare personal biographies with those you've come to know and love.
I'll bet then you'll be able to relate much MUCH better! (smile)
Good luck to you my friend, and thanks for posting.

Just turned 35 a couple of weeks ago...
Born Nov 1971 to a military family. Base-hopped around til 1981 when my parent's divorced. Mom took me back to her hometown- small border town in TX. Did 4 years of AFJROTC in high school, 3 years of Latin competitons. Got medically DQ'd from getting a AF commission, so I lost my 4 year scholarship and AF Academy appointment.
Went to Texas A&M University, majoring in psychology, minor in Latin. Took up fencing my 1st year there, worked my way up to the team and club president. Graduated with honors. Went to grad school at St. Mary's University, got my MA in Clinical Psych.
Did 3 years of work in the mental health field, but couldn't get an actual psychologist position. Decided to change careers and try the IT field. Moved here to AZ from TX because I had family here who told me the market was much better for jobs than back in San Antonio. Finished my entry level certs recently and now am in the job hunt.
Last girlfriend I had was back in 1993. Dates are few and far between when you are an average looking guy who is only 5'1" and not the bad boy type.

he's a minor so i'd assume you ought to. i'm no longer constructive about the regulations there, yet age of consent commonly potential interior of a particular age variety, which incorporates a 16 365 days previous can date a 18 365 days previous. imagine about at the same time as a instructor dates/humps a pupil, instructor commonly ends up in reformatory. i'd ask someone who would understand more desirable about this. feels like you've a pedophile in the making if no longer already there...
